This striking Nelson Argillite roimata is carved from beautifully dark, black-toned argillite, a stone valued for its strength, smooth finish, and connection to the Nelson region. Polished to a soft natural sheen, the stone has a sleek, modern feel while still honouring its traditional roots.
The roimata (teardrop) form symbolises aroha, healing, renewal, and positive change. It is often worn as a reminder of emotional strength, compassion, and the ability to move forward with clarity and confidence. Rather than representing sorrow alone, the roimata celebrates growth, release, and new beginnings.
Finished with a black binding that perfectly complements the deep tones of the stone, this piece has a refined and balanced look. The binding adds texture and detail, enhancing the elegant lines of the roimata and making it comfortable to wear every day.
